===== Reports on the Detection of 1,3-Pentadiyne in the ISM =====

The 1,3-pentadiyne molecule CH<sub>3</sub>C<sub>4</sub>H, aka methyldiacetylene, had been identified in spectra recorded toward TMC-1 by two groups independently and at almost the same time\\

//Astrophys. J.// **847** Art. No. 51 (2017).\\
The three //J// = 11 – 10 transitions with //K// = 0, 1, and 2 were detected near 44.8 GHz with the 100 m GBT.\\

Twelve transition with //J// = 8 to 12 and //K<sub>a</sub>// ≤ 1 were detected with the Yebes 40 m radio telescope. The CH<sub>3</sub>C<sub>4</sub>H to CH<sub>2</sub>DC<sub>4</sub>H abundance ratio of 24 ± 2 is very similar to that of CH<sub>3</sub>C<sub>3</sub>N to CH<sub>2</sub>DC<sub>3</sub>N ratio of 22 ± 2.\\
